South Sudanese Youth are the future for our country and people back home. As long as we remember that, everything we do has a purpose 🇸🇸

Amazing turn out at a collaborative event between @DoSpaceOmaha & YFGG as we enrolled members of the South Sudanese community into their tech program which includes a free laptop & hotspot for a year. We’re among a digital age and we’re thankful for opportunities such as these.

At the end of each academic school year we like to celebrate our young scholars! It’s important to show our youth that we value you and your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed! They won cool prizes like airpod pros & visa gift cards, the parents were all smiles, it was great! 🇸🇸

South Sudanese youth deal with so much adversity and obstacles.. with all the distractions and peer pressure they face we wanted to simply celebrate them for never giving up and always striving to be the best they can! Look at some of our bright members & their families! 🇸🇸

It’s not every day our youth get to say they were featured on their local news!! A beautiful sight to see of our south Sudanese youth showcasing their culture. Can we give it up for these cultured queens?! 🇸🇸

YFGG for the culture program allows our youth a space where they can embrace, celebrate and love their cultural identity! Look at some of our members rocking traditional wear at World Refugee Day #SouthSudanese #youth #culture 🇸🇸

S.Sudo youth at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln! What an empowering college tour we had as ALL the tour guides are current students & 1 actually just graduated and works at UNL! The over arching theme of this visit was: YOU CAN DO IT & don’t have to do it alone 🇸🇸 #UNL

For a lot of Sudanese youth in the diaspora they may be the very first in their family to attend college. Being on a campus is a great first step to visualizing yourself there.. to have a tour hosted by fellow Sudo sisters and brother is empowering & inspiring to say the least!
